Assignment 1A lack of self-regulation can hinder academic success. Conversely, being intentional can lead to meeting performance outcomes and acquiring deeper learning. Through a development of personalized learning strategies, it is possible to take concrete steps toward becoming an intentional learner. My assigned learner is Dan, who tends to procrastinate, remains unfocused throughout the day, and lacks both confidence and self-esteem. Dan also has trouble with self-reflection, and is uncomfortable asking for help.
To FIT his learning patterns more intentionally, Dan would do well to increase confluence skills to increase the Forging process. Dan would also benefit from activating his interest in precision learning strategies to help him build confidence and esteem in his own capacity to succeed. Increasing both his use of confluence and technical learning strategies would help Dan with Forging as well as Intensifying, leading to Tethering experiences. For example,, Dan could learn time management skills and self-monitoring to help him see how he is the only person standing in the way of achieving his own goals.
When applied to my own LCI scores and learning patterns, I can also identify ways I can be more FIT to be successful academically. Like Dan, I use technical learning strategies least often or avoid them when possible. I need to FIT technical learning...
When I build and tether technical skills, I can learn how to adapt myself to meet the challenges of each task rather than to expect the task to change to meet my own expectations.
Assignment 2
The prompt I connect with most and would like to reflect on is the first one, related to improving my lifestyle and health seeking behaviors. I am actively interested in improving my diet, exercising more, and achieving a finer work/personal life balance. However, until now I have lacked a comprehensive plan for achieving my goals in a reasonable time frame. A five step plan will help me to reach my goal systematically. The following five step plan is based on a recognition of my personal learning styles as revealed by the LCI because I do believe self-regulation and self-awareness will help me to succeed.
1. Write down my goals. I have a strong interest in Precision and Sequence as Use First learning strategies, which makes writing down my goals an effective place to start.
2. Research what I can do to ensure success. As a means of building my technical learning, I believe that research will help me to understand the scientific evidence underpinning each of my steps in the process towards…
My husband scored differently from me on the LCI, with almost opposite results from mine. Most notably, he uses technical learning first (score of 33), whereas I avoid it (score of 17). He uses precision only as needed (score of 22), whereas I use it first (score of 35). Although technically his sequence score is for using it as needed, he almost scored low enough on the sequential learning (score
Learning Style Inventory My results: learning style inventory When I learned that my predominant learning styles were those of a visual learner and a social learner, I was not surprised. The theory of multiple learning styles of Howard Gardner resonates what I have known intuitively for a long time: different people are innately talented at different things. "Unlike the established understanding of intelligence -- people are born with a uniform cognitive capacity
VARK Questionnaire and Learning Style There are many different methods and styles of learning that individuals use with varying degrees of preference and efficacy, and many different frameworks for identifying and understanding these different learning styles also exist. The VARK model, which stands for Visual, Aural, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic, describes four basic learning modes that can suggest specific learning strategies that are more effective for learners with different specific preferences in
Community Colleges in America In 1983 and 1984, a dozen major reports on the United States' schools were published. All stressed the need for "excellence" in education. These reports are the subject of: Excellence in Education: Perspectives on Policy and Practice. The reports pertaining to higher education were published by The BusinessHigher Education Forum, and saw higher education as "unable to train skilled managers and technicians that they believed industry needed."
Learning a Second Language Psychological Aspects of Learning Psychological Aspects of Learning a Second Language A foreign or second language "L2" can be defined as a language that is studied in such environment where it is not the common language for daily interaction. The reasons for learning second language (L2) vary from person to person because different people learn a second language for different purposes. Some learn it for enjoyment and internal satisfaction
E. In instances where the students have already demonstrated a diversity of learning styles (DeCastro-Ambrosetti & Cho, 2005). The use of authentic assessments includes greater student directive-ness and increased empowerment and self-guidance and -reliance in the learning process. Self-assessment is seen by many to be the culmination of the individualization of learning assessment, but when this occurs solely for the purposes of accountability, learning is far from guaranteed (Gaytan & McEwen,
